With Christmas on a Sunday this year we all got a little creative on how to "get it all done"...one of the big gifts for the girls this year was their baby dolls.... because the CountryRents had purchased accessories to go with the dolls and we were opening gifts with them on Saturday before gifts at MIL's on Sunday she graciously agreed to come over on Friday so the girls could open this big gift... we took her to see the "light show", ordered our fav pizza and aside from the mini-meltdown by Miss B ;) had a GREAT time and the girls were THRILLED!

I had been BEGGING Minnie to pop out her 2nd front tooth for weeks so she could do the ol' "all I want for Christmas is..." and sure enough on Christmas Eve afternoon she pulled it out :) I LOVE little kids with no front teeth. I just think it is the CUTEST thing!

We celebrated with the CountryRents on Christmas Eve AM....

This kid....

handmade shields by Husband.... no swords provided ;)

I didn't take ONE pic of the festivities at MIL's on Christmas Day but we had a wonderful time at church and then spending time all together in the sea of gifts :)

Few pics "stolen" from Betsy's FB

A wonderful Christmas Day followed by Minnie getting the pukes Christmas night... ah...fun! :)

Minnie kicked it off for us with a holiday concert on the last day before Christmas break....

such a sweet and special time to sit with my community and watch our kiddos...

as soon as Daddy got home we headed to the movies or as my gals call it... the "movie thee ay tah" :) I don't actually know that we have ever ALL gone to the movies together... it was a blast and the movie "Sing" was adorable
